Scores in Saturday's loss Adams caught all two targets for 30 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 28-20 defeat against Coastal Carolina.

Impact Adams caught a 15-yard touchdown in the second quarter Saturday, his first touchdown since Week 6 last season. He underwent surgery for a broken leg at the end of last season and the start to his 2024 campaign has not been strong. Despite scoring versus Coastal Carolina, he has just four catches on six targets through three games which makes his value pretty low.

Full go for Temple's practices Adams (leg) is a full go for Temple's team practices, Kyle Gauss of Rivals.com reports.

Impact During 2023, Adams' best performance was a midseason game against UTSA, who gave up 10 receptions for 127 yards and one touchdown to the redshirt junior. But for the most part, he logged one reception or less during Temple's games that year. Ideally for Adams, his 2024 season includes him recording multiple receptions more often.

Remains sidelined Adams (leg) is not a full participant in Temple's spring practices, Shawn Pastor of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Adams, who underwent surgery on a broken leg late in the 2023 season, has yet to participate in full for Temple as they open spring practices. The 6-foot-2 redshirt sophomore appeared in seven games last season, totaling 15 receptions for 149 yards and two touchdowns.

Undergoes surgery for broken leg Coach Stan Drayton said that Adams underwent surgery for a broken leg on Sunday, 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Adams suffered a serious injury on the opening drive of the game and was taken off the field in an ambulance. The walk-on receiver has slowly made his way up the Temple depth chart and had posted 15 catches for 149 yards and two touchdowns in seven games played. Adams will look to rehab and be ready to go for the 2024 season.

Taken off in ambulance Adams was taken off the field in an ambulance early in Saturday's game at UAB, 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Adams appeared to suffer a serious injury on the fourth play from scrimmage Saturday and needed an ambulance to take him out of the stadium. This almost for sure means he will miss the remainder of the game, and possibly the season with the Owls having just one regular season game left.
